Electronics Recycling
Due to popular demand, we have partnered with ECS and been awarded a grant by Apple to continue offering regular electronics recycling events around Kaufman County! Most electronics have hazardous materials in them including heavy metals, arsenic, and more, making them difficult and costly to dispose of properly. Our electronics drives allow the comfort in knowledge that the items are recycled and the toxins are handled properly; convenient locations all over Kaufman County; and ease on finances as all electronics, small appliances, cell phones, batteries, and more are accepted free of charge. The only exception is the fee for monitors and TV's due to the cost of the recycling process. All monitors are only $5. TV's up to ……. And all other electronics are free including: computers, keyborards, laptops, scanners, printers, copiers/fax machines, cell/corded phones, ink jet and laser cartridges, stereos, all types of batteries, small appliances and much more.
Paper Shredding Events
Whenever possible, we try to partner with local businesses to offer free paper shredding at the same time and location as our electronics events. Without sponsorship, shredding is not possible at all locations.
